sn-webcam project

[2005-12-27] SN-WEBCAM Release 0.8.0 is now available for download with many enhancements.
It supports both native video pixel format over USB: Sequential RGB Bayer and Huffman compressed, high refresh rate, grabs, timestamps (optionally), many controls (like exposure, contrast, ...), some minor bugfix and many code cleanups.

1. Aim

The aim of this project is to develop a light and easy to use GNU/Linux free software based on sn9c102-webcam grabber and its successive sn9c102-webcam-lk.
This v4l2 program displays and saves (jpg) images, grabbed from sn9c10*-based Sonix/Microdia webcams, and also periodically upload them by FTP. Many options can be simply changed by a configuration file.

sn-webcam is worldwide used from many users and last releases can be considered quite stable.

Spca5xx Module allows you to use gnomemeeting, gqcam and other common used webcam software (v4l based). It works greatly with 2.4/2.6 kernels and is released under GNU/GPL license. Actually sn-webcam doesn't work with this module but we suggest you to try it.
